Sadly James had to fly back to Cape Town on the 1st January 2014 so we spent a few days together in Windhoek before he left. We decided to treat ourselves and so we stayed in the Hilton (whoo!) Which I must confess was absolutely amazing. It was also quite hilarious watching the disbelieving faces of the people behind the desks as two teenagers who admittedly looked a bit like tramps (we had just been sat in the back of a boiling hot truck for 5 hours) walked in and got upgraded to the executive suite! :O
So we spent a few days in Windhoek, wandering around the city and basically just enjoying our last few days together. I was even finally able to take James to Joe's beer house for New Years Eve :) Although sadly we weren't able to go to the fancy party on the roof as the tickets had all been bought. Oh well, we still had an amazing time :)
That's the same reaction we had when we rocked up at that hotel in Nanjing after the overnight train journey in China. Cue Chinese receptionist saying 'you are very dirty..' At least it got us an upgrade.
